I placed my right foot down and caught the crampon on my left foot. I stumbled, and took a few big steps but didn’t fall. Everything seemed okay at the time, but my right knee has been hurting me since. I&rsquo;ve been hoping it would get better but so far it isn&rsquo;t. Due to my knee issues we have changed our plans for tomorrow. We were planning to go to <a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landmannalaugar\">Landmannalaugar</a> and hike a bit. Since my knee isn&rsquo;t doing so well, we are going to instead do the <a href=\"https://www.iceland.org/golden-circle-iceland/\">Golden Circle</a> tomorrow. Landmannalaugar will have to wait for another time. I’m sure my knee will be fine with some rest.</p>\n<img src=\"https://cdn.uploads.micro.blog/890/2022/60fc3ea2a5.png\" width=\"600\" height=\"366\" alt=\"Google Maps route from The Garage near Landeyjahofn on Iceland south coast north to Blue View Cabins, passing through Selfoss and Hella.\" />\n<p>Jump to day\n<a href=\"https://www.thingelstad.com/2022/07/22/iceland-log-day.html\">0</a>,\n<a href=\"https://www.thingelstad.com/2022/07/23/iceland-log-day.html\">1</a>,\n<a href=\"https://www.thingelstad.com/2022/07/24/iceland-log-day.html\">2</a>,\n<a href=\"https://www.thingelstad.com/2022/07/25/monday-july-th.html\">3</a>,\n<a href=\"https://www.thingelstad.com/2022/07/26/iceland-log-day.html\">4</a>,\n<a href=\"https://www.thingelstad.com/2022/07/27/iceland-log-day.html\">5</a>,\n<a href=\"https://www.thingelstad.com/2022/07/28/iceland-log-day.html\">6</a>,\n<a href=\"https://www.thingelstad.com/2022/07/29/iceland-log-day.html\">7</a>,\n<a href=\"https://www.thingelstad.com/2022/07/30/iceland-log-day.html\">8</a>,\n<a href=\"https://www.thingelstad.com/2022/07/31/iceland-log-day.html\">9</a>,\n<a href=\"https://www.thingelstad.com/2022/08/01/iceland-log-day.html\">10</a>,\n<a href=\"https://www.thingelstad.com/2022/08/02/iceland-log-day.html\">11</a>,\n<a href=\"https://www.thingelstad.com/2022/08/03/iceland-log-day.html\">12</a>,\n<a href=\"https://www.thingelstad.com/2022/08/04/iceland-log-day.html\">13</a>,\n<a href=\"https://www.thingelstad.com/2022/08/05/iceland-log-day.html\">14</a>,\n<a href=\"https://www.thingelstad.com/2022/08/06/iceland-log-day.html\">15</a>,\n<a href=\"https://www.thingelstad.com/2022/08/07/iceland-log-day.html\">16</a>\nor <a href=\"https://www.thingelstad.com/collections/iceland-2022/\">Iceland 2022: Ring Road</a> collection.</p>\n",
